Liz Lopez, RMHCI
Founder & Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern
Hi, I’m Liz Lopez, a Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern and the Founder of Modern Psychology.
At Modern Psychology, you’re not just a client—you’re a whole person with a unique story, valuable strengths, and limitless potential. My purpose is to meet you where you are, walk alongside you with compassion and understanding, and help you build a life that feels more authentic, balanced, and fulfilling.
I know that life doesn’t always follow a straight path. There are seasons when it feels like you’re just trying to stay afloat—overwhelmed by stress, caught in self-doubt, or struggling to find clarity. If that resonates with you, please know this: you are not alone, and you don’t have to navigate it alone either.
My mission at Modern Psychology is to provide more than just therapy sessions. I’ve created a safe, inclusive, and judgment-free space where you can feel seen, heard, and supported. Together, we’ll explore what lies beneath the surface, uncover your strengths, and build a foundation for lasting healing and meaningful growth.
With over a decade of experience in behavioral analysis, I’ve had the privilege of working in diverse settings including community mental health, foster care systems, and substance use treatment programs. These experiences have shaped my approach and deepened my understanding of the complex realities individuals and families face.
Now in private practice, I work with individuals, couples, and families across a wide range of concerns, always with cultural sensitivity and a commitment to evidence-based care. At Modern Psychology, we believe therapy should be accessible, personal, and rooted in real human connection—no matter your background, identity, or life story.
In addition to clinical practice, I am pursuing a Ph.D. in Human Services, focusing on trauma, healing, and the systems that influence well-being. This academic journey keeps my work informed by the latest research and best practices, allowing me to offer clients deeper, more integrative care.
My therapeutic style is collaborative, compassionate, and trauma-informed. I integrate evidence-based techniques with reflection and insight to help clients gain clarity, strengthen resilience, and foster confidence. Whether you’re healing from trauma, navigating life transitions, or seeking to improve relationships, I’m here to guide and support you every step of the way.
You are not broken.
You are not broken. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about helping you reconnect with your inner calm, clarity, and strength. Healing is rarely linear. It can be uncomfortable, messy, and uncertain. But it is also powerful—and absolutely possible. You don’t need to have everything figured out. You just need the courage to take the next step.
If you’re ready to begin that step, I invite you to schedule a session with Modern Psychology. Whether you prefer to meet in person at our Miami office or through secure online therapy, we’ll start where you are and move forward together. Your path to healing begins with a single conversation—let’s take that step today.
